Warfare has entered a new era where battles are fought not only with precision but at unprecedented speed. Near-peer adversaries like China and Russia are leveraging advanced autonomous systems, saturating the battlefield with unmanned vehicles and overwhelming traditional military infrastructure. In this landscape, traditional supply chains, centralized manufacturing, and rotary-wing-centric unmanned systems fail to keep pace with the demands of distributed operations, Joint All-Domain Command and Control (JADC2), and Agile Combat Employment (ACE).
This is a tectonic shift. Winning wars now requires seamless interoperability, localized production, and scalable, attritable systems that adapt to evolving mission needs in real-time.
The Entrenched Enemy
The enemy is inefficiency and obsolescence. Legacy systems are cumbersome and costly, bogged down by decades of bureaucratic inertia. Supply chain vulnerabilities delay critical deployments. Rotary-wing drones dominate the market but fall short in endurance, range, and adaptability. Meanwhile, centralized production fails to meet the demand for agile, on-the-ground manufacturing in contested environments.
The result? Warfighters are left without the tools they need to prevail in dynamic, high-stakes scenarios. The cost in lives and readiness is too high. The gap between what warfighters need and what they’re given has become an existential threat.
The First-of-Its-Kind Solution
Firestorm has reimagined defense technology for this new world. At its core are two revolutionary solutions: Tempest and xCell.
• Tempest, a modular fixed-wing UAS, offers unmatched endurance, payload capacity, and scalability. It is designed for One-Way Attack missions, precision ISR, and base defense. Unlike rotary-wing competitors, Tempest dominates in endurance and adaptability, making it the platform of choice for warfighters who need results now.
• xCell redefines the logistics game. This expeditionary additive manufacturing solution enables production at the edge—creating mission-critical systems like Tempest in under 48 hours. With xCell, supply chains are decentralized, resilience is enhanced, and operations are no longer limited by geography or time.
Together, Tempest and xCell embody Firestorm’s belief: Victory demands innovation that scales. These solutions don’t just keep up with the pace of modern conflict—they set it.
How Firestorm Sees the World Differently
Firestorm sees a battlefield where modularity, speed, and scalability determine success. Every mission, every warfighter, and every dollar spent deserves technology that adapts to the fight, not the other way around. With a relentless focus on affordability, interoperability, and additive manufacturing, Firestorm transforms the way militaries engage and win in a contested, unpredictable world.
• What We say: The future of defense is modular, local, and fast. We don’t just build drones; we redefine what’s possible in warfighter support.
• What We are building: A seamless ecosystem of software-defined platforms and hardware innovations designed to integrate with JADC2 and beyond.
• What We aim to do: Deliver solutions that win the war before the first shot is fired. Every product and decision are designed to empower warfighters with superior tools and capabilities, ready when and where they’re needed.
Firestorm isn’t just a company; it’s a call to action for a more agile, connected, and decisive military.
